For purposes of this section, a project is deemed to meet the requirements of this section if the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Governor that the applicant has a binding commitment that it will mitigate impacts resulting from the emission of greenhouse gases, if any, preferably through direct emissions reductions where feasible, but where not feasible, then through the use of offsets that are real, permanent, verifiable, and enforceable, and that provide a specific, quantifiable, and direct environmental
and public health benefit to the same air pollution control district or air quality management district in which the project is located, but if all of the project impacts cannot be feasibly and fully mitigated in the same air pollution control district or air quality management district, then remaining unmitigated impacts shall be mitigated through the use of offsets that provide a specific, quantifiable, and direct environmental and public health benefit to the region in which the project is located.
